Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

selexipag sarecycline

Applies to: selexipag and sarecycline

MONITOR: Coadministration with sarecycline may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporter. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance in the intestine, kidney, and/or liver due to inhibition of P-gp-mediated efflux by sarecycline. When the probe P-gp substrate digoxin was coadministered with a single 150 mg dose of sarecycline, digoxin peak plasma concentration (Cmax) increased by 26%.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when sarecycline is used concurrently with drugs that are P-gp substrates, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever sarecycline is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Drug and food interactions

Minor

selexipag food

Applies to: selexipag

Food prolongs the gastrointestinal absorption of selexipag. When taken with food, the time to peak concentration (Tmax) was delayed and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was approximately 30% lower. Selexipag systemic exposure (AUC) and that of its active metabolite did not significantly change, however. Selexipag may be taken with or without food. Tolerability may be improved when taken with food.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
